I let it collect dust for a week then decided on whim to format the thing and its been working fine ever since. No problems since, I never did figure out why it happened. In hindsight the only thing I can think of is maybe that week there was a kernel update that fixed a bug or it might have been that I swapped it between nix and doze boxes a lot. Don't do that anymore but its all supposition since I don't have any facts. This as you may have guessed is just my long winded way of saying format it for giggles and see what happens. -- "Any fool can know.
